点评:The Frick Pittsburgh Museums and Gardens is actually a small campus of buildings mostly relating to the Frick family of industrial fame. You pay to enter once and that enables you to see the whole thing (Exhibitions being extra).
We have visited the Frick in New York at least twice and were attracted to come here by the Matisse/Renoir/Degas exhibition, which is going on through October 11, 2026. While we were there, they also had a temporary display of three Monet works.
This Frick is much smaller than the one in New York, having perhaps only three permanent galleries and less notable art. The French Moderns exhibit was in two or three galleries and perhaps 40 works by a variety of mostly Impressionist and post-Impressionist artists from around 1867-1900. The artists include not only the ones named, but also Gustave Caillebotte, Berthe Morisot, Marc Chagall, Pierre Bonnard, Rodin, and Raoul Dufy. While small, we thought it was worthwhile.
The permanent collection is not all that impressive, with the best works likely now in New York.
The campus includes a carriage museum that is highly worthwhile. Most of the carriages and cars were owned by the Frick family. You'll want to read the descriptive material for fun details about them -- one, for example, was a present to Frick's 9-year-old daughter. They also have a Ford Model T or A they let you sit in to take photos.
The Frick home is on the campus and can be seen with a tour guide. It was swathed in scaffolding during our visit so we skipped it. There is also an attractive greenhouse and a popular cafe.
We wouldn't categorize this as a major attraction, but it was a nice place to visit for an afternoon.

我们至少两次造访过纽约的弗里克博物馆。此次前来则是被正在举办的马蒂斯、雷诺阿和德加作品展所吸引,该展览将一直持续到2026年10月11日。我们在参观期间,还看到了馆内临时展出的三幅莫奈作品。这个弗里克博物馆比纽约的那个小得多,大概只有三个常设展厅,展出的艺术品也不算特别出色。此次“法国现代艺术”展览设在两三个展厅中,展出了大约40件作品,作者多为印象派及后印象派画家,创作时间大约在1867年至1900年间。参展艺术家不仅有名单上所列的那些人,还包括古斯塔夫·卡耶博特、贝尔特·莫里索、马克·夏加尔、皮埃尔·博纳尔、罗丹以及拉乌尔·杜菲。虽然规模不大,但我们觉得参观还是值得的。这里的永久收藏品其实算不上出色,最珍贵的艺术品如今很可能都收藏在纽约。
校园内还有一座非常值得一逛的马车博物馆。馆内的大部分马车和汽车都曾是弗里克家族的私人物品。建议仔细阅读旁边的介绍文字,能了解到不少有趣的细节——比如其中有一辆马车就是送给弗里克9岁女儿的礼物。此外,馆内还陈列着福特T型车或A型车,游客可以坐进车里拍照留念。弗里克故居位于校园内,可以跟随导游参观。我们到访时,建筑外搭满了脚手架,因此我们没有进去。那里还有一个漂亮的温室以及一家很受欢迎的咖啡馆。
我们并不把它列为主要景点,但确实是个适合度过一个下午的好去处。
